Using a Glycemic Index Food List to Decrease High Blood Sugar Symptoms

The glycemic index, or GI, measures how a carbohydrate-containing food raises blood glucose. Foods are ranked based on how they compare to a reference food — either glucose or white bread. A food with a high GI raises blood glucose more than a food with a medium or low GI.

It uses a scale from 0 to 100. The higher the values, the most rapid rise in blood sugar levels are. Pure glucose has a scale of 100. Foods with a high GI are rapidly digested, on the other hand, foods with low GI are slowly digested. You can prevent the high blood sugar symptoms if you consume more low-GI foods because they reduce insulin levels. Low-GI foods have many benefits, we already mentioned one, and another one is that they are very good for weight control.

So if you want to prevent blood sugar symptoms, or you want to take control over your weight, or even you want a better overall health, you can use the GI so you can achieve your goals easier.
